but later were withdrawn in the
face of a militant attitude by the
agrarians.
Await Inaagural
Representative West (D.-Tex.)
represen tat ing the American own-
ers. has been seeking action but the
l state department is said to have
found that subordinate officials In
Mexico City were loath to do any-
thing pending the Inaugural.
General Cardenas is a strong
advocate of partition of lands for
Mexicans agart a ns. but it is under-
stood he believes this should be
done in accordance with legal con-
fiscation laws.
The present trouble zone has been
the scene of past bloodshed over
the same problem. Eight persons
were killed on a hacienda in 1926
when the owners attempted to de-
fend the land against agrarian
seizure.
Rabbits Recovered
The Brownsville police department
1mm recovered a pair of white rab-
bits recently reported stolen and is
holding them at the police station
for the owner.
The owner neglected to leave his
name when he reported ths theft.
The rabbits have tatoo marks on

NEW YORK STOCKS
NEW YORK Nov. 27—<*•>—Many
stocks dipped under profit-taking
Tuesday but the trading volume also
dwindled appreciably on the mode-
rate declines.
In view of the fact that the
equities list had advaced for four
consecutive sessions an Irregular
set-back was not at all unexpected
and was interpreted by m#*t market
analysts as a “healthy correction’'
of a position that had become a
little top heavy
The utilities which Monday per-
formed with some of their old-time
vigor bore the brunt of the selling
in the early hours. Although they
were unable tc come back to any
great extent they turned extremely
quiet. Scattered specialties breasted
the current and the rails wbre notice-
ably resistant. News of an especial-
ly stimulating character was scarce.
Grains were somewhat Improved
but cotton and most other com-
modities did virtually nothing.
Bonds were fairly firm. Foreign ex-
changes held to a restricted range.
Shares of Homestake Milling got
up 10 points mi a single transfer. In-
ternational Business Machine ad-
vanced more than a point to a new
year’s top. Union Pacific firmed a
point and Santa Fe N. Y. Central
Southern Pacific and Northern Pa-
cific were about unchanged to
slightly higher. Losers of fractions
to more than a point included
American Telephone. Consolidated
Gas Western Union. Public Service
of New Jersey American Can
General Motors Chrysler U. S.
Steel. National Biscuit U. 8. Smelt-
ing International Harvester. Case
and Goodyear.
The rails appeared to be hearten-
ed by expectations that the next
congress will do something to put
them on their feet. At the same
time current net operating incomes
of most of the lines showed little
betterment. Some of the New
York utilities were depressed by re-
ported plans of the city to impose a
S per cent tax on gross earnings of
these corporations.
